Jason Ray Robbins was born on December 5,1973, to Roy Lee Robbins

and Francis Ann (Moss) Robbins, in Pawnee Oklahoma.  He passed away

on March 1, 2018.

Jason grew up on a farm outside Pawnee, Oklahoma.  He attended

Pawnee Public School and graduated from there in 1991.  He attended

Oklahoma State University, he lacked 2 hours in getting his Bachelor of

Science in Agriculture / Agronomy.  He once told a friend, he didn't need to

get up in front of anyone to work on the farm, so he never took the

mandatory speech class required to graduate.

Jason grew up helping his father on the farm.  He loved taking care of the

animals.  Every summer his family would go to South Dakota and help

Jason's uncle Wayne with wheat harvest.  After he stopped going to

college, he decided to join the part of the Robbins family that had migrated

to South Dakota.  He went to work with his uncle Wayne, cousin Roger,

brother David, and their families.

Jason was a shy quiet man.  He kept to himself most of the time.  As the

saying goes, children and animals know a person's heart, and children and

animals loved being around Jason and he loved them as well.  His shyness

would slip away as he played games with the children.

Jason is survived by his father and mother Roy Lee, and Francis Ann

Robbins, of Pawnee, OK, brother David Robbins, of Hamill, SD, and

several aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
